It has been well over a month since the beginning of classes at XX Private. It is October 31st, the famous time of Halloween. Masahiro walked outside his house, adorned with many unlit Halloween decorations. He peers outside, and sees that all the houses in his neighborhood have decorations on them.

"Jeez, gonna be a wild time tonight," he mutters, walking back into his house. He looks in his closet, and pulls out his costume: a pirate costume with a saber and an eye patch. His mom came into his room with some makeup and drew some fake stitch scars on his arms and face. "You really do look like a pirate," she comments, proud of herself.

Masahiro smiles and throws his bag onto himself, picking up a bento box, and leaving. Sayori greets him with a witch costume. "You're looking greener than normal," he says jokingly, leading to Sayori pouting. Following that, they walk over to meet up with Isekai, who just stepped out of his gate, wearing quite a vampire costume, consisting of one's usual formal attire, and makeup to really sell it.

He waves at them, and they notice his little fang. "Wow, it looks real!" Sayori comments, pointing at it. "It is real," he replies. After a short conversation, all three of them manage to fit themselves into Isekai's motorcycle and drive off to school.


At XX Private High...


Every last person in the school was wearing a costume. Ranging from the usual monsters like Frankenstein's, vampires, zombies, skeletons, or pirates to characters from certain shows they watch.

They bump into a person who was wearing a black full-body skinsuit with an eye where the face is. "GAH!" Masahiro and Sayori yelp. "Ah! I'm so sorry, did I scare you?" the person asks, concerned. "Wait, Shuuchaku-chan? I didn't think you were the type to wear a skinsuit for Halloween. What're you dressed as?" Isekai questions, crossing his arms.

"You did hear that they animated the Portrait of Markov novel series into an entire anime two weeks ago, right?" she asks, holding two fingers up. "Yes, actually. Been all over my home page on social media," Masahiro says, pulling out his phone and showing them. "Well, I'm actually dressing as the series' feared being, Markov. I thought of it as looking more horrifying, but it's really just a blackened human body with a large eye on its face and a ton of spikes on its back. Maybe I haven't seen the complete deal just yet. Not that it isn't scary, but I expected more out of it," she continues, scratching her head.

"Hmm... you look like you put on some weight. No offense," Sayori comments, visibly surprised. "Oh, no, I'm just wearing some moderately thin clothes underneath. When I had a look in the mirror earlier, nearly every last one of my body's curves was visible, and I didn't like the thought of how others would look at me, so I wore a shirt and slightly thick leggings to maybe put it down," Yuri answered, shaking.

"Anyway, where's the other members?" Masahiro asks, looking around. Suddenly, Isekai turns behind him and catches a Halloween-themed cupcake. "Ooh, a cupcake," he mutters, eating it. "I was trying to hit you, you know," a familiar voice says. The other three look over, and see Natsuki wearing a baker's outfit.

"You know, that surprisingly suits her, surprisingly being the operative word here," Masahiro comments. "Eh? She has a knack for baking, why?" Sayori questions. Yuri sighs. "Well, whenever you would think of a baker, you'd usually think of a man of slightly above-average height, no?" Yuri says. Sayori nods, and Masahiro continues. "Tsunde-san's pretty short, so it's a little hard to see her in a baker's outfit. I mean, if she had an apron and wore some house clothing, it'd look better on her," he says.

Natsuki grins, and Isekai feels like something went wrong. "Did... a-... did you lace this cupcake with multiple different laxatives to try to send me into shitting out an entire cesspool?" he asks her rhetorically, ready to send her flying. "Wait, why are you taking that so casually? Don't you have to dump it out?" Natsuki questions, shocked. Isekai takes a deep breath.


In a minute...


Natsuki is stuck with her head through a chair's gap with a crushed bucket on her head and a ribbon binding her wrists together, and Yuri tries to get her out. At that moment, Mitsuki arrived, wearing a knight costume. "...heck happened here?" she asks, concerned. Yuri sighed and explained the situation. "Tsunde-chan gave Mizuki-san a cupcake laced with multiple laxatives. She expected it to have tremendous effects, but it didn't seem to affect him. He forced her head through a chair's gap, put a bucket on her, and then crushed it while she was wearing it."

Monika came in with a dragon costume. Everyone noticed her and waved as Natsuki managed to pop her head out of the chair. "...what about the bucket, guys?" she asks, her voice muffled. Yuri pulls out her pocket knife and manages to rip the bucket open within twenty seconds. "Oooh, it hurts all over..." she mutters, dropping to the ground. Isekai sighs and turns to go to his classroom. Sayori and Masahiro follow him, a bit scared.
